Chinese Temple - very colorful. There was a large dragon the same as this tiger. You enter through the mouth and inside the body there are incredible murals of the lifes of budda. He had 10 lives.

We were biking around to the temples and the ruins.

Creamation place. In Thai they fill this area with wood and place the body on top of the wood in a very thin coffin. On top they put a beautiful wood "house" so the spirit will have a place to live when it gets to the afterlife. Their tradition is to watch the body burn. Our guide who was a monk for 17 years saw many funerals and said it was scarry watching the bodies burn.

Lost City of Chiang Mai

This Baby Elephant loved the sugar cane and wouldn't touch the bananas. This part of the trip was so much fun!!

They taught the baby how to paint a picture. It was adorable to watch. Of course we bought the painting!
